special restaurant but very rich food

by lautumnh

i have been here several times, both on dates with my husband and with groups of friends. it is a very special dining experience. the service is impeccable. the food is decadent and clearly made with love and skill. yes the portions are small, but they are very rich, and i can never eat it all. in addition to the courses you order, they serve all sorts of little surprises between courses. the last time i was there, i jokingly asked the waiter if he was trying to hurt me by serving me all the food. he didn't get my joke, but i left feeling ill from all the butter. i think it's too rich for me!

• Pros: special, decadent, romantic
• Cons: don't feel well after so much rich food

Exceptional fine dining.

The taste, the flavors, the fresh ingredients - not many chefs like these in this world. ( Not a metaphor.)

Flawless, unobtrusive service. Accurate, invisible help.

Interior is Swiss bank smart, clear, efficient.

Location - who cares.

Price - you get what you pay for. Value - the other way 'round.

Superb service with great food

by TheDaniels

We went here for our 5th wedding anniversary a few years back. I am just now writing a review because I have always read reviews when I am choosing a new restaurant, and they have been very helpful to me. I was taking my husband out, so we didn't discuss price before hand (I already knew what to expect). The food was very good and well prepared. My favorite was the crab cake fritters we had as appetizers (drizzled with an Asian source). You were really able to taste the freshness in each course, and the wait staff was outstanding. This restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, and is great for couples looking for privacy. When the check came at the end of the evening, my husband was a little shocked but never said it wasn't worth it.

• Pros: Definitely food and service
• Cons: None
